Why does startx command run Fluxbox in my Backtrack2?

Hello, I have experienced this problem after I use flux command to see what fluxbox looks like. After that I reboot my backtrack 2 (installed in my HD), and I want run KDE, so I type startx and it still run fluxbox, I reboot several times, startx can't run KDE. What should I do?

It doesn't work. When I run startkde, there are some errors which I forgot (I just remember "couldn't connect to X server", and some errors are related to kdesplash, kdeinit). Then back to main screen (I don't know what name for this screen, after you login as root) again.

I've had the same problem with BackTrack3 Final HD installation. Once I typed "flux" to start the fluxbox I can type "startx" as often as I want and the command starts the fluxbox. I've solved this problem via a reinstallation of BackTrack3.
